MESA, Ariz.
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. has announced its renowned Sheraton brand will open a new-build hotel in Mesa, Ariz., next to the Chicago Cubs' new spring training complex.
Owned and developed by River View Hotel, LLC and operated by Power hotels, LLC, Sheraton Mesa Hotel broke ground this spring and is slated to open in March 2015. The 180-room hotel will be Starwood's first property in Mesa and the sixth Sheraton hotel in greater Phoenix.
The new Sheraton will be located immediately adjacent to Cubs Park at Wrigleyville West, the brand-new 15,000-seat stadium spring training facility for the Chicago Cubs. It is part of the Riverview re-development project, which spans 170 acres and will include facilities for sports, recreation, cultural and public events. Guests will be walking distance to the Mesa Riverview shopping center and just minutes from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX), the Mesa Convention Center, Arizona State University and the offices, dining and shops of Tempe.
At the heart of the lobby, guests will enjoy the signature "Link@Sheraton experience with Microsoft" – a relaxed space with complimentary wireless broadband where guests can socialize and connect with friends, both old and new. All guest rooms will offer the all-white Sheraton Sweet Sleeper bed, designed to meet AAA's Five Diamond Award criteria, an oversized work desk, ergonomic chair, high-speed Internet and 42-inch flat panel television. Sheraton Club guests will enjoy upgraded amenities, as well as complimentary breakfast, beverages and evening hors d'oeuvres in the Sheraton Club Lounge.
An ideal choice for business meetings, weddings and social functions, Sheraton Mesa Hotel will feature more than 30,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting and function space. Hotel amenities will include two full-service restaurants, both indoor and outdoor bars, a resort-style outdoor swimming pool, and a fitness facility featuring the brand's revolutionary health and fitness program, Sheraton Fitness by Core Performance.
